26th Feb 2022 Good To Soft 2m 0f 46y Class 2 |
11st 4lb |
The last two of his three C&D wins were comfortable and it was no backward step when runner-up at Musselburgh (good to soft) three weeks ago; based on his consistent RPRs, this mark should be manageable now handicapping; edges preference. |

3-3 over hurdles with all those wins coming at Newcastle (2m, good-soft), easily the last twice; strong claims for last year's winning yard. |

26th Feb 2022 Good To Soft 2m 0f 46y Class 2 |
11st 2lb |
Fairly untroubled in winning a bumper and three novice hurdles, all at 2m and showing versatility regards ground conditions; the runner-up last time hasn't franked the form but perhaps unwise to read too much into that; he looks promising. |

Unbeaten in a bumper and two novice hurdles (good to soft/heavy); beat Well Planted by 5l at Ayr and now has to give him 12lb, but he appeared to improve again when doing it so easily here last time; looks useful. |

21st Apr 2022 Good To Soft 2m 4f 35y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Has a regressive profile but he posted some fair efforts at the start of this year and he's continued to drop down the weights; has had wind surgery since his last outing and he's not ruled out. |

19th Mar 2022 Good 2m 0f 46y Class 3 |

Made all to win this race off a 5lb higher mark last year; hasn't scored since, but fair third here last time (Minella Plus well back in fourth); worth considering. |

19th Mar 2022 Good 2m 0f 46y Class 3 |
11st 5lb |
Won three races late last year (two novice events and a handicap); hampered by a faller when third in a Catterick handicap in January, but disappointing over C&D last time; needs to bounce back. |
4/1 |

26th Feb 2022 Good To Soft 2m 0f 46y Class 2 |
11st 5lb |
Completed a hat-trick on his handicap debut at Musselburgh in December, again making all; finished a remote third last time but suffered some severe mid-race interference and no surprise should he bounce back; trip/ground fine. |

3rd 1 |
26th Jan 2022 Good 2m 3f 66y Class 3 |
11st 12lb |
Like so many from his yard, he's having an excellent season and he completed a hat-trick on his handicap debut at Musselburgh in December, again making all; his previous win came over this C&D on good ground; more required under top weight but it's unlikely we've seen the best of him yet. |

12th Mar 2022 Soft 1m 7f 216y Class 1 |
10st 1lb |
The saddle slipped when pulled up early on his penultimate run and just a few days later he resumed his progress with a battling display under Archie Bellamy at Leicester (1m7f, soft); continues to creep up the handicap but he gets in here off a feather weight and he looks a good bet to give his running. |

26th Feb 2022 Good To Soft 2m 0f 46y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Cheltenham winner in December and the saddle slipped when pulled up there next time; soon back on track with an ultra-game success at Leicester (1m7f, soft) and Archie Bellamy rides again off a 4lb higher mark; solid. |
100/30 |
